Unconference Love

I love the unconference format.

I find so much value in taking an issue and hashing it out with a small group of people on comfy chairs with wine or coffee. I love it when I can offer ideas to others. I love it when one idea leads to another and we end up somewhere unexpected. I don't love it when someone has an idea I hadn't thought of or when their idea rocks a "truth," or something close to it, for me.

This is when I start to think.

It's not pleasant. It's not comfortable. It's questions, doubt and maybe even a temporary loss of spirit. It is what it is and, while I know that this too will pass, I hope it doesn't pass too quickly.

This is when I grow.

First thing I read today. What a wonderful new header and some very touching thoughts. This is why your blog never disappoints me. You make me think and grow.

Lisa, love the new look and feel of the site! NAS did a great job!

Nice reflective post on the unconference format as well. Have a great day.

Great new look Lisa!

And talk about timing...fellow members of our local Coaching Hub are putting together an unconference next month....feeling our way through keeping it as open as possible so that what you describe is allowed to happen.
